YewArcher:
Here is one of my favorite bows that I have made. Pictures cant do it justice but thats ok!

56" Osage. 60#@26". Rattle snake skins covering a TB2 sinew job. This has rawhide grip and rawide tip wraps. The string is linen. The arrow is rivercane and ash with a trade point.






Baker no-nock knots:



Front profile:



Braced:



Full Draw:



This bow shoots fantastic. I really like it. The bow is not finished yet as i usually do not finish bows until they are well seasoned. When I do it will get true oil.

Thanks for looking:

Very nice little bow. How many courses of sinew did you add? What is the width?    1 1/2"?      Pat

wow. very clean my friend.
great bow!
have u made many bows using tb2 with sinew? sounds like a great idear!
are the lines in the tip wraps where you tied it as it dried?
 if so how did you keep string from sticking to rawhide?
